In the simulation.
Soon after Rephya fled in panic with a bucket during the Martial God Festival.
In the hotel, Chloe was gently stroking Abigail's belly with a hint of curiosity.
Several months had passed since the conception of the child, and Abigail's belly had become visibly larger.
She lifted her head to look at Chloe and said:
"Brother, let me accompany you to find her."
Chloe looked up at Abigail, frowned, and said:
"You're pregnant now, so don't travel far."
But Abigail shook her head and said:
"I also want to see the legendary Golden Maze."
Chloe's head grew even heavier.
This made him even more reluctant.
Although it was merely an agreement with the Desire Mother Tree, Chloe was not so callous as to deliberately take Abigail, who was with child, to risk the maze.
Abigail tilted her head and asked:
"Brother, are you worried about me?"
"Yes."
The entanglement with the Desire Mother Tree was one thing.
The relationship with Abigail was another.
Abigail heard Chloe say this calmly, she smiled and said:
"Then let it be like a brother accompanying me on a trip. When you go to find Rephya, I'll wait for you outside."
Chloe originally wanted to refuse, but when he lowered his head, he saw the eagerness hiding in the girl's eyes.
After hesitating for a moment, he said:
"Alright, then don't wander off at that time."
Location: Golden Maze
Chloe arranged for several extraordinary individuals to look for Rephya's whereabouts.
Soon, he heard from an adventurer that indeed a silver-haired girl with a single ponytail had entered the maze earlier.
Chloe shook his head and said:
"It's probably a bit too early for her to enter the Golden Maze now."
He knew exactly what Rephya would see in the Golden Maze.
Mother's shadow and that small home.
Such were the children from collapsed areas.
Ravaging demons shattered the happiness of the family of three into pieces.
Thus, Rephya could only see her distant family again in the illusion realm created by the Phantom Ghost.
"I'll go check it out. Please sit here and wait for me."
He wouldn't be inside for too long.
At most, he would be out in an hour.
But still, he was worried that Abigail might encounter danger outside alone, so he hired a group of adventurers to protect her.
"Wait for me to come back."
Abigail replied obediently:
"Okay, brother, you take care as well."
Once Chloe entered the maze, Abigail lifted her head.
Her forehead's lock-shaped imprint was glowing with a beautiful light.
The adventurers protecting her around were gradually losing focus under the influence of that glow.
She whispered:
"Sorry, brother."
Her brother didn't want her to enter the Golden Maze.
Though she appeared compliant, she hadn't promised Chloe not to enter the maze.
This is the art of language.
As she stepped into the Golden Maze, every footprint she left behind was accompanied by blooming flowers.
— As if the maze itself was welcoming her arrival.
She watched as Chloe saved Rephya, destroyed one heroic illusion, and fiercely fought another.
The Thunderous Battle Halberd was surrounded by lightning, seemingly ready to swallow the earth.
Yet Chloe struggled to gain anything from the female hero.
With exchange after exchange, after battling for three hundred rounds, Chloe finally chose to leave helplessly.
And all of this fell into Abigail's sight.
The heroic illusion watched Chloe depart without pursuing further combat.
But unexpectedly.
At that moment, light enveloped Abigail's feet.
Countless flowers and trees spread, transformed into giant hands, and lifted her to the front of the heroic illusion.
The heroic illusion stood quietly, without any movement.
Abigail gazed for a long time and finally sighed:
"Ah, the heroes of the first generation. It truly is a history long forgotten."
People only knew there were illusions of the heroic squad within the Golden Maze.
But which generation they belonged to, and what their names were, had become unknown.
Abigail tiptoed and reached for the female hero's helmet.
The female hero seemed to want to back away, but after a moment, she stopped, allowing Abigail to remove her helmet.
Silent, tear-stained hollow eyes quietly watched the girl.
The female hero's long hair poured down like a waterfall.
Abigail revealed a trace of irony and absurdity:
"Are you regretting it, Sword Hero?"
...
In reality.
Inside Amber Hall.
Chloe, already settled within Amber Hall, slowly opened his eyes.
Memories from the simulation flooded out, nearly swallowing him whole.
The first generation of Artificial Earth Divine Pattern Technology, and the PLUS edition.
The second generation of Artificial Earth Divine Pattern Technology, with a youth edition for popularization and a high-end PLUS edition.
The core technology of the third generation of Artificial Earth Divine Pattern.
Memories from long-term research flooded his mind, showing clear discomfort on his face.
But, the pain was worth it.
The core technology of the Extreme Association was acquired.
Not to mention the rewards from the Blessed with Many Children System.
[Geniuses walk among the stars, while the mediocre cannot even follow a single footprint. But what about you, Chloe, do you think you're the mediocre one?]
[Unlock new trait "Enhanced Focus"]
Enhanced Focus (SR): When you study, your concentration will be highly focused, making it easier to learn and master knowledge.
Your resistance to pollution knowledge has increased.
You find it easier to understand the internal working principles of Rune Runes.
...
[Silver rain falls onto the podium, lift the cup, Extreme Association]
[Unlock new trait "We Are the Champions"]
We Are the Champions (SR): Bind to a faction unit, when the faction wins a regional-level or higher major event championship, the members' likelihood of breaking through limits increases by 1%.
If you are the leader of the faction, you will additionally gain the talents "Overcome Injuries", "Old but Not Dead", "Leadership Skills", "Physical Tenacity", and "Mental Tenacity".
Chloe glanced at these talents.
Overcome Injuries (R): When faced with injuries that could easily affect the path of an Extraordinary, you can rehabilitate to eliminate the negative impact of the injury.
Old but Not Dead (R): As you age, your accumulation of Extraordinary experience accelerates, and there is a certain probability of gaining new insights.
Leadership Skills (R): Your words become more compelling. When you give a speech, the audience's attention increases, recognition rises, and those who deeply agree with your philosophy will become your loyal followers.
Physical Tenacity (R): Your body can endure repeated trials, slightly enhancing physical tenacity.
Mental Tenacity (R): You have a sturdy mind, making your spirit more robust, slightly enhancing spiritual energy.
The effect of "Enhanced Focus" is quite useful.
Especially for the Path of Omniscience, which requires a lot of learning, it could directly reduce the accumulation time needed for Chloe's further advancement.
However, what surprised him more was "We Are the Champions".
An SR trait that grants five R-level traits to a faction leader.
Undoubtedly, this is the king of cost-efficiency.
Looking at these traits, he unhesitatingly bound the faction to the Extreme Association.
Old but Not Dead is as it is.
Being resilient and capable is the most important.
However, this time could be considered the least number of children he had in all the simulations.
Senior Sister Fufu and he only had two children.
The unfortunate thing is, they only inherited his talents.
The eldest son inherited "Vibrant (SR)" and "Dragon Spirit and Tiger Fierce (N)".
The eldest daughter inherited "Vibrant (SR)" and "Ice Skin Jade Bone (N)".
Gained two additional Vibrant fragments.
That's not bad though.
After all, Vibrant is the most valuable when ignited among all talents.
The Desire Mother Tree, on the other hand, was uncharacteristically quiet.
Perhaps because it occasionally descended upon Abigail, it wasn't as greedy as before, so its original human form only had two with him.
One inherited "Vibrant (SR)" and "Advanced Earth Affinity (1/4)".
The other inherited "Vibrant (SR)" and "Giant Strength (SR)".
Counting the Advanced Earth Affinity (2/4) he originally had, Chloe was only a step away from synthesizing a new talent.
However, how should I put it...
The number of Vibrant kids in his family really is quite high.
Having used the Recovery talent for so long, he more or less saw the essence of Recovery.
The basic recovery effect was fine.
The advanced optimization effect was more like a reset.
Reducing agility, enhancing strength.
Reducing strength, increasing life energy.
...
Even reducing part of the memory to enhance another part of the memory.
Of course, there were many restrictions.
Talents like XX Affinity, which are essentially sensitivity to some form of Extraordinary Power, are difficult to reset.
The easiest to reset are constitution-type and bloodline-type talents.
Vibrant and Demon Prince were burned away in this manner.
The biggest surprise, of course, was the two children with Abigail.
The elder daughter's talents [Coronation] + [Vibrant], the elder son's talents [Divine Tree Body] + [Giant Strength]
Coronation (SR): Breaking genetic locks is not difficult for you. Enhance the essence of life for 10 minutes, falling into a weakened state afterward.
Summary: Gain near-next sequence power for 10 minutes
Divine Tree Body: Your life energy further increases, and you can consume Extraordinary Power to summon myriad plants to fight for you.
Summary: Finally, you can open Tree Realm Descent.
Looking at the harvests from this simulation, Chloe contentedly fell asleep.
He just didn't expect that as soon as he went to the academy the next day, he would be hit by a thunderbolt from Rephya.
No way, Holy Bone has this effect?
It even harmonizes negative states in females?
Looking at Xiaolu, cheeks flushed with embarrassment due to her period, he said:
"Oh, that, for girls, it's indeed an awkward topic to bring up."
Chloe said with a smile:
"I understand, after all, boys also feel restless and embarrassed when going through their molting period, and are less willing to tell others."
"Ah? Do boys go through that too?"
Xiaolu was shocked.
Was it the same molting she understood it to be?
Do senior brothers also have a molting period?
